RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFACE STATEMENT

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for an intentional radiator, pursuant to Part 15, Subpart C of the FCC Rules. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause interference to radio communications.

The limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential situation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna of the affected radio or television.

Increase the separation between the equipment and the affected receiver.

Connect the equipment and the affected receiver to power outlets on separate circuits.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

W A R N I N G

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by ADTRAN could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

SHIELDED CABLES

A shielded-type power cord is required in order to meet FCC emission limits and also to prevent interference with nearby radio and television reception when using the AC voltage adapter. It is essential that only the ADTRAN-provided power cord be used.

FCC OUTPUT POWER RESTRICTIONS

The FCC does not require licensing to implement this device. However, the FCC has established restrictions regarding maximum output power and the adjustments required when employing directional gain antennae. (Refer to “Setting the Transmitter Power” in Section 2 of this manual). These restrictions are detailed in FCC Part 15.247 (b)(1), (b)(3)(i), and (3)(iii). It is the responsibility of the individuals designing and implementing the radio system to assure compliance with these and any other pertinent FCC Rules and Regulations. This device must be professionally installed.

EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY FIELDS

The TRACER is designed in three versions with the following power options:

2.4GHz @ 100 mW

2.4GHz @ 1 W

5.8GHz @100 mW

These levels of RF energy are below the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) levels specified in FCC OET 65:97-01. The installation of high gain antenna equipment in the system configuration may create the opportunity for exposure to levels higher than recommended for the general population at a distance less than 15 feet (4.6 meters) from the center of the antenna. The following precautions must be taken during installation of this equipment:
